yuán běn hào dàng yī sè de qīng míng zhū biǎo miàn ， bèi dào dào xiàn tiáo fēn gē chéng le zhū duō bù tóng de qū yù 。
原本浩荡一色的青冥珠表面，被道道线条分割成了诸多不同的区域。
The boundless azure light within the Pearl of Boundless Azure finally revealed a unique aura, one that was both eye-catching and distinct. It transformed from black to white in an unceasing gradient, as if it had experienced all colors throughout time.
qí zhōng jué dà bù fèn qū yù ， biān jiè xiàn míng miè bù dìng 、 kàn bù qīng chǔ 。
其中绝大部分区域，边界线明灭不定、看不清楚。
Li Fan scooped this aura into his hands.
wéi yǒu xiǎn shì zhe yī méi míng liàng jìng zi de qū yù ， cái sì hū 「 huó zhe 」。 ér qiě sàn fà chū gēn qīng míng zhū běn tǐ dà bù xiāng tóng de bō dòng 。
唯有显示着一枚明亮镜子的区域，才似乎「活着」。而且散发出跟青冥珠本体大不相同的波动。
"Thirty Lectures on Primordial Dao..."
lǐ fán cóng nà shēng téng ér qǐ de qì xī zhōng ， yī xī jiān sì hū kàn dào le yī méi wán zhěng de wú liàng jìng 。
李凡从那升腾而起的气息中，依稀间似乎看到了一枚完整的无量镜。
The name alone caused Li Fan's expression to twist slightly, but he quickly immersed himself in Qiu Zhuang's cultivation and understanding of the Primordial Dao symbols. The experience was incomparable to forcibly probing memories with a divine array; it allowed him to sense what Qiu Zhuang had learned and how long he had spent on his studies.
「 zhè bù tóng de fēn qū ， jiù shì qīng míng zhū céng jīng tūn shì guò de bù tóng xiān qì ？」
「这不同的分区，就是青冥珠曾经吞噬过的不同仙器？」
However, using the Pearl of Boundless Azure, all of Qiu Zhuang's thoughts and mental states related to these Primordial Dao symbols were vividly reenacted in Li Fan's mind. It was as if Li Fan had experienced Qiu Zhuang's life anew through his own identity!
「 zhǐ bù guò suí zhe qīng míng zhū céng jīng de pò suì ， zhè xiē gōng néng yě dōu wú fǎ shǐ yòng le 。 wéi yǒu xīn kāi pì de wú liàng jìng cái miǎn qiǎng kě yǐ ……」 yī gǔ míng wù yǒng shàng lǐ fán xīn tóu 。
「只不过随着青冥珠曾经的破碎，这些功能也都无法使用了。唯有新开辟的无量镜才勉强可以……」一股明悟涌上李凡心头。
Once Li Fan regained consciousness, he had mastered the "Thirty Lectures on Primordial Dao." Moreover, with his personal understanding, he knew it even better than Qiu Zhuang, a member of the Divine Hunt organization.
xiāng jiào yú qīng míng zhū ， zhè kuài bèi kāi pì chéng wú liàng jìng de qū yù ， fǎn dào shì gèng jiā róng yì gōng xiàn 。
相较于青冥珠，这块被开辟成无量镜的区域，反倒是更加容易攻陷。
This effortless acquisition was truly intoxicating. Li Fan couldn't help but lick his lips.
lǐ fán shí fēn nài xīn de yǐ wú liàng jìng qū yù wèi tū pò hòu ， zhōng yú yòu chéng gōng jiāng yī sī shén niàn sòng rù qīng míng zhū nèi bù 、 bìng qiě zhè cì méi yǒu zài qīng yì bèi qí qū zhú 。
李凡十分耐心的以无量镜区域为突破后，终于又成功将一丝神念送入青冥珠内部、并且这次没有再轻易被其驱逐。
"With this powerful tool in my hands, I would be eager to sweep through the outer walls immediately. It could replace hundreds of years of arduous cultivation."
ér shì zài wú liàng jìng qū yù nèi ， zì cǐ shēng gēn ān zhá qǐ lái 。
而是在无量镜区域内，自此生根安札起来。
A dangerous glint appeared in Li Fan's eyes, but he ultimately suppressed it. There were risks involved, and more importantly, he couldn't determine if there might be any adverse effects from using the Pearl of Boundless Azure to gain such insights.
bù jiǔ hòu ， zhèn suí niàn qǐ ， shēng shēng bù jué 。
不久后，阵随念起，生生不绝。
The changes within his soul could still experience "True Reality," even after the transformation. Minor changes might be overlooked, but if they accumulated over time, a few instances of True Reality wouldn't wash them away—making it extremely dangerous and not worth the risk.
qiǎn lǜ sè 、 gēn qīng míng zhū běn tǐ wǎn ruò tóng sè de dà liàng zhèn fǎ wén lù ， zì wú liàng jìng qū yù nèi gēn zhí 、 zī shēng 。
浅绿色、跟青冥珠本体宛若同色的大量阵法纹路，自无量镜区域内根植、滋生。
"Let's conduct extensive trials first for safety verification."
lǐ fán shì tú yǐ 「 zhèn liàn 」 zhī shù ， wán quán liàn huà 、 zhǎng kòng zhè jiàn xiān bǎo 。
李凡试图以「阵炼」之术，完全炼化、掌控这件仙宝。
Moreover, from a theoretical standpoint, capturing the thoughts of deceased individuals wasn't limited to their cultivation techniques.
xiān liè jiě lí dié chū shǒu ， xiào lǜ zì shì fēi tóng fán xiǎng 。
仙列解离碟出手，效率自是非同凡响。
"Is there any method that could restore all memories and thoughts of a corpse?"
bù guò yī tiān shí jiān ， yī gǔ mò míng de lián xì 、 biàn dàn shēng zài lǐ fán yǔ qīng míng zhū zhī jiān 。
不过一天时间，一股莫名的联系、便诞生在李凡与青冥珠之间。
If such a method existed, Li Fan could create and duplicate a cultivator who would be more like his original self.
lǐ fán zhǎng shū yì kǒu qì ， yòu shǒu bǎ wán zhe qīng míng zhū 。
李凡长舒一口气，右手把玩着青冥珠。
Li Fan toyed with the Pearl of Boundless Azure as it returned to its original form, lost in thought...
méi yǒu shí jì de jiē chù gǎn 。 zhǐ shì bīng bīng liáng liáng ， shí fēn de huá nèn yǔ shū shuǎng 。
没有实际的接触感。只是冰冰凉凉，十分的滑嫩与舒爽。
The remaining four Everlasting Heavens immortals arrived on schedule. They were received personally by Emperor Sanmo and Qiao Shi Dao without disturbing anyone else, leading them into the world where Instructor Jiang resided.
qīng míng zhū zì pò miè zhōng xīn shēng ， wǎn ruò bèi chóng xīn dǎ zào 。 guò wǎng shēn shàng de yī qiè jiā suǒ 、 jìn zhì ， sì hū dōu yǐ jīng yān xiāo yún sàn 。
青冥珠自破灭中新生，宛若被重新打造。过往身上的一切枷锁、禁制，似乎都已经烟消云散。
Due to the封锁 of the All-Pervading Array, they couldn't sense Instructor Jiang's presence at the core of the array. However, Li Fan had intentionally released some of Instructor Jiang's insights for their benefit, synchronizing it with them as they entered this small world.
zuì qǐ mǎ lǐ fán zǎi zǐ xì xì 、 cóng lǐ dào wài jiǎn chá le yī fān ， dōu méi yǒu fā xiàn yǒu qí tā lái lì bù míng de néng liàng cán liú 。
最起码李凡仔仔细细、从里到外检查了一番，都没有发现有其他来历不明的能量残留。
In particular, Zhao Ruoxi was immersed in the profound understanding of "The Dao Is Me." From a philosophical standpoint, "Eternal Self" and "The Dao Is Me" were essentially interconnected. However, while "Eternal Self" involved continuous assimilation to ultimately merge with the Dao, "The Dao Is Me" bypassed numerous steps directly reaching the conclusion: I am the Dao, and the Dao is me.
jí biàn shì zhè yàng ， lǐ fán yě méi yǒu wán quán fàng xīn 。 zhèn liàn shǒu duàn ， yī jiù bù tíng 。 qīng míng zhū biǎo miàn ， hào dàng qīng tiān zhōng ， zhú jiàn chū xiàn le yì wàn de yín sè xīng chén 。 nà xiē dōu shì zhèn fǎ yùn zhuàn suǒ liú lù de hén jì 。
即便是这样，李凡也没有完全放心。阵炼手段，依旧不停。青冥珠表面，浩荡青天中，逐渐出现了亿万的银色星辰。那些都是阵法运转所流露的痕迹。
Even after undergoing severe training from Li Fan, Zhao Ruoxi still felt a sense of imbalance and jealousy. The other three Everlasting Heavens immortals, as well as Emperor Sanmo and Qiao Shi Dao, were not far behind in their reactions.
lǐ fán shǒu xiān yán jiū qǐ liǎo wú liàng jìng gōng néng 。
李凡首先研究起了无量镜功能。
"I thought that the divine technique [Great Yao Divination] used by Senior in the Divine Alliance to inspire others was already beyond comprehension. But facing the Dao directly is... " Qiao Shi Dao was speechless with awe for a long time.
tā céng jīng qián fú zuān rù zhè jiàn pò sǔn xiān qì zhōng yī duàn shí jiān ， kě yǐ shuō duì tā shí fēn liǎo jiě le 。
他曾经潜伏钻入这件破损仙器中一段时间，可以说对它十分了解了。
"The Dao Is Me" felt like gaining many insights through dialogue, but once they returned to reality, it seemed as if nothing had changed. There were no traces of their understanding of the Dao left behind.
「 wú liàng jìng de zhū duō shén tōng ， jiàn lì zài 【 wú liàng ， hóng méng jiàn fāng 】 zhè yī xiān jí dà zhèn de jī chǔ zhī shàng 。 cóng lǐ lùn shàng lái jiǎng ， néng gòu jiě xī shì jiān wàn wù 。 nǎ pà shì chāo chū zì jǐ céng jí de dōng xī ， yě néng yú gōng yí shān bān 、 huǎn huǎn jiě xī 。」
「无量镜的诸多神通，建立在【无量，鸿蒙见方】这一仙级大阵的基础之上。从理论上来讲，能够解析世间万物。哪怕是超出自己层级的东西，也能愚公移山般、缓缓解析。」
After Li Fan withdrew his compassionate rewards, the expressions on their faces reflected their inner disappointment.
「 dàn xuán huáng jiè zhōng wǒ suǒ jiē chù de wú liàng jìng ， wēi néng dà sǔn 。 bié shuō shì jiān wàn wù le ， jiù suàn shì tóng wèi xiān qì de tiān xuán jìng ， tā yě zhǐ néng zhuā zhù jiàn xì tōu kuī 。」
「但玄黄界中我所接触的无量镜，威能大损。别说世间万物了，就算是同为仙器的天玄镜，它也只能抓住间隙偷窥。」
"How do you feel?"
「 ér xiàn zài ……」
「而现在……」
Li Fan appeared and asked. The group's demeanor became solemn; they first paid respectful greetings before praising him effusively.
lǐ fán shǒu chí qīng míng zhū ， huí dào le wàn xiān méng 。
李凡手持青冥珠，回到了万仙盟。
"I wish to integrate this insight into your Dreamland Paradise."
xiān méng zǒng bù kōng jiān nèi ， lǐ fán shǒu zhōng qīng míng zhū bì shuǐ dàng yàng 。 shū rán jiān zhī jiān biàn huà chéng wéi le tiān xuán jìng mú yàng 。
仙盟总部空间内，李凡手中青冥珠碧水荡漾。倏然间之间变化成为了天玄镜模样。
Li Fan continued after everyone had finished speaking. This statement startled them, especially Wu You.
cháo zhe sì zhōu zhàn fàng chū yī quān yōu yōu guāng máng 。
朝着四周绽放出一圈幽幽光芒。
After the initial excitement of receiving such a good fortune, Wu You felt an overwhelming sense of fear.
lǐ fán méi yǒu cóng tiān xuán jìng de nǐ zào jìng líng chù ， shōu dào rèn hé yǒu guān wēi xié de tí xǐng 。
李凡没有从天玄镜的拟造镜灵处，收到任何有关威胁的提醒。
This unexpected blessing...
dàn què mǐn ruì de chá jué dào le ， qīng míng zhū nèi bù ， yǒu yī kuài xīn de gōng néng qū zhèng zài kāi pì 。
但却敏锐的察觉到了，青冥珠内部，有一块新的功能区正在开辟。
Could it be that this true immortal was tormenting him in another way?
tóng yàng shì yí miàn xiǎo jìng ， què shì gǔ piáo tóng lǜ sè ， zhèng gēn tiān xuán jìng běn tǐ rú chū yī zhé ！
同样是一面小镜，却是古朴铜绿色，正跟天玄镜本体如出一辙！
Wu You had learned much from Zhao Ruoxi recently. Just as he struggled to respond, Li Fan spoke again.
「 suǒ tūn shì de wú liàng jìng ， shì shòu sǔn hòu de ruò huà bǎn 。 dàn qīng míng zhū què néng tōng guò zì shēn de shén yì ， jiāng wú liàng jìng de gōng néng bǔ quán ！」
「所吞噬的无量镜，是受损后的弱化版。但青冥珠却能通过自身的神异，将无量镜的功能补全！」
"In the realm of dreams, there is no life or death."
「 ér qiě ， xiàn zài kàn qíng kuàng ， tūn shì liǎo wú liàng jìng hòu ， jìng rán shì jǐn jǐn tōng guò 【 jiě xī 】， jiù néng fù xiàn bié de xiān qì de zhū duō gōng néng ？」
「而且，现在看情况，吞噬了无量镜后，竟然是仅仅通过【解析】，就能复现别的仙器的诸多功能？」
"Disciples are not afraid of death and can serve as scouts beyond the walls. They fit the role perfectly."
lǐ fán xīn zhōng yòu jīng yòu xǐ 。
李凡心中又惊又喜。
However, there was a drawback: their strength was too weak, and their cultivation progress was too slow.
dàn zhè fèn xǐ yuè bìng méi yǒu chí xù duō jiǔ 。
但这份喜悦并没有持续多久。
Li Fan smiled: "If they become too weak, even countless ants cannot form a climate."
huò xǔ shì yīn wèi tōng guò wú liàng jìng de jiě xī shēng chéng de yuán gù 。 qīng míng zhū zhōng ， tiān xuán jìng gōng néng fēn qū jǐn āi zhe wú liàng jìng gōng néng fēn qū 。 ér qiě zhè ge biān jiè ， bìng bù shí fēn míng xiǎn 。
或许是因为通过无量镜的解析生成的缘故。青冥珠中，天玄镜功能分区紧挨着无量镜功能分区。而且这个边界，并不十分明显。
"But if ants turn into hyenas, that's different."
tiān xuán jìng gōng néng fēn qū zhǐ dú lì cún zài le bàn zhǎn chá de gōng fu ， jìng rán jiù bèi wú liàng jìng gōng néng fēn qū gěi tūn bìng le 。
天玄镜功能分区只独立存在了半盏茶的功夫，竟然就被无量镜功能分区给吞并了。
"The manifestation of Wu You's strength in dreams is based solely on the consciousness level. By facing the Dao directly, akin to an enlightenment experience, we can elevate ordinary cultivators to Everlasting Realm within a short period."
bìng qiě zhè zhǒng hé bìng ， lǐ fán yě wú fǎ kòng
并且这种合并，李凡也无法控
"And it can be quantitatively controlled."
zhì 。
制。
Li Fan spoke softly, but his words were like thunder in their ears.
róng hé fā shēng hòu ， yú qīng míng zhū biǎo miàn suǒ yǐn yǐn chéng xiàn de xiǎo jìng xíng xiàng ， yě suí zhī fā shēng le biàn huà 。
融合发生后，于青冥珠表面所隐隐呈现的小镜形象，也随之发生了变化。
They still harbored doubts, but Li Fan's recent displays had made them trust him.
tóng lǜ sè tùn qù ， xíng zhuàng yě biàn chéng le yuán xíng 。
铜绿色褪去，形状也变成了圆形。
"Take this divine soul as an example."
jìng miàn lǐ ， gèng shì sì hū yǐn cáng zhe yī shuāng yǎn móu ， àn zhōng kuī tàn zhe wài jiè de yī qiè 。
镜面里，更是似乎隐藏着一双眼眸，暗中窥探着外界的一切。
Li Fan spread his palm, revealing a glowing point—chosen personally from the "Era." With a mental command, he poured the transformation insights of "All-Pervading Array, The Dao Is Me" into this divine soul.
lǐ fán xīn zhōng wēi wēi yī dòng ， qīng míng zhū suí xīn biàn huà 。 nà xū huàn de jìng zi ， jiù zhēn shí de chū xiàn zài le tā de shǒu lǐ 。
李凡心中微微一动，青冥珠随心变化。那虚幻的镜子，就真实的出现在了他的手里。
Despite its extreme weakness, the theoretical understanding of this divine soul expanded at an unimaginable rate. It wasn't just Instructor Jiang's own insights; it also included Li Fan's thoughts and experiences over many years.
jiě xī hái méi wán chéng ， dàn shì yǐ jīng jiān jù liǎo wú liàng 、 tiān xuán jìng liǎng zhě de zhū duō gōng néng 。
解析还没完成，但是已经兼具了无量、天玄镜两者的诸多功能。
Apart from the change in reality, everything was recorded within the All-Pervading Array.
The boundless azure light within the Pearl of Boundless Azure finally revealed a unique aura, one that was both eye-catching and distinct. It transformed from black to white in an unceasing gradient, as if it had experienced all colors throughout time.
Li Fan scooped this aura into his hands.
"Thirty Lectures on Primordial Dao..."
The name alone caused Li Fan's expression to twist slightly, but he quickly immersed himself in Qiu Zhuang's cultivation and understanding of the Primordial Dao symbols. The experience was incomparable to forcibly probing memories with a divine array; it allowed him to sense what Qiu Zhuang had learned and how long he had spent on his studies.
